The maximum DC current gain β is 214. The BVCEO is up to 10V,and the BVCBO is up to 16V with a collector doping concentration of 1 × 10^17cm^-3 and collector thickness of 400nm. The device exhibits a maximum oscillation frequency fmax of 19. 3GHz and a cut-off frequency fT of 18.0GHz at a DC bias point of Ic = 30mA and VCE = 3V.MSG (maximum stable gain) is 24.5dB,and U (Mason unilateral gain) is 26.6dB at 1GHz. Due to the novel distribution layout, no notable current gain fall-off or thermal effects are observed in the I-V characteristics at high collector current.展开更多

A new unified formulation from dynamic equations of cooperating multi-finger robots is derived considering the force and acceleration relationships between the fingers and the object to be handled. From the dynamic equation, maximum translational and rotational acceleration bounds of an object are calculated under given constraints of contact conditions, configurations of fingers, and bounds on the torques of joint actuators for each finger. Here, the rotational acceleration bounds can be applied as an important manipulability index when the multi-finger robot grasps an object. To verify the proposed method, we used a set of case studies with a simple multi-finger mechanism system. The achievable acceleration boundary in task space can be obtained successfully with the proposed method and the acceleration boundary depends on the configurations of fingers.展开更多
